Pro's Fiddle
Every Tuesday evening we will be running a 9 Hole individual competition 3pm - 6pm (no start sheet, play in groups of 2, 3, or 4). The competitions will be a mixture of stablefords and medals and will be full handicap. The entry fee will be £1 and prize money will be paid to the top three competitors (pro shop account). The competition is open to all members with a handicap and will be a qualifying competition.
Pro-Am Event
Alongside this myself and Tom will also be playing a Pro-Am style event at 6pm. We will each arrange to play with three members, who can still play in the Pro's Fiddle if they wish. The result of the 9 hole 'Pro-Am' score will then be put into two league tables (My teams and Tom's Teams) with the two leading teams playing off at the end of the season. The entry fee for this will be £3 per person. Both competitions will be starting on Tuesday, 5 May.
